Seven years ago, a contract was signed in a room that smelled of old wood and young fear. At eighteen, Kim Taehyung, a prodigy of the camera lights, and Jeon Jeongguk, a rising titan of the ice, were bound together in a marriage of convenience, then promptly sent to opposite sides of the world.
Now, the glitz of Taehyung's celebrity world has crumbled into a humiliating bankruptcy. Left with nothing but his name and a one-way ticket, he is forced into the biting cold of Toronto to claim the life he never wanted: as the secret husband of the NHL's most ruthless captain.
Jeongguk is the "Golden Boy" of the league, a man of steel blades, stoic silence, and a carefully curated bachelor image. His life is a high-stakes game of collision where there is no room for a husband, especially not one as vivid and haunting as Taehyung.
As the playoffs loom and the paparazzi circle, the two must navigate a dangerous charade. To the fans, Taehyung is just a nobody. To the league, Jeongguk is the ultimate prize.
But behind the closed doors of a glass house, the ice is beginning to thin. Between the grit of the locker room and the delicate bloom of the studio, a terrifying truth emerges: the contract may have been fake, but the collision is real.
In a world that demands perfection, can a man made of winter and a man made of spring survive the thaw?
